Several Second Precinct officers recently sprang into action and worked together after a vehicle drove recklessly away from a gas station on Belt Boulevard. Off duty Officer Lindsay Wallace followed the vehicle until Officer Kevin Knudsen got closer and attempted to stop the vehicle. The suspects jumped from the vehicle while it was still moving, but Officer Knudsen jumped into the vehicle and stopped it before it could hit an occupied apartment building. One arrest was made and officers are still investigating. Good work!
